Scrotal cysts are fluid-filled sacs that develop in the scrotum, the pouch of skin that holds the testicles 13.
Types of scrotal cysts include:
- Spermatocele: Also called an epididymal mass or cyst, it is typically filled with fluid and noncancerous 1.
- Hydrocele: Occurs when fluid fills between the layers of the sacs surrounding the testicles 1.
- Sebaceous cysts: Caused by the blockage of sebaceous glands, which produce oil to lubricate the skin 23.
Symptoms of scrotal cysts may include:
- Painless lumps 34
- Discomfort or pain, especially during physical activity or sexual intercourse 3
- Swelling, redness, and tenderness if the cyst becomes infected 23
Diagnosis involves a physical examination and, if necessary, imaging tests like ultrasound or a biopsy 14.
Treatment options depend on the cause and severity of the cyst and may include monitoring, antibiotics, drainage, or surgical removal 14.
If a scrotal lump appears, it is recommended to consult a healthcare provider for proper diagnosis and treatment 4.
